Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. What a sickener. But, NOT TO WORRY. You know that if you keep to the diet the weight will go. Are your clothes looser? The thing is, hmmmmmmmm IGNORE IT! That's the answer, just keep your head down, don't be disheartened and fight the good fight! We are all in this together and next week will be a great one for you, i think.

Is a woman on a mission.

Are you due on a period? Have you been drinking all your water?If you have stuck to your plan... it's probably water weight.Keep up the good work until the next weigh in and you will probably find you have a wholloping big weight loss as your body continues to adjust.

Ok reality is that you HAVE to lose fat when doing Cambridge SS, it is impossible not to lose fat as you are only getting around 450 calories from the packs and you need around 1750 to 2000 to just live your life, you have no glycogen fuel and hence the only fuel coming is from good old fat.

Therefore any gain on the scale or plateua cannot be because you haven't lose fat, it must be water, scale variance, clothes weight etc etc etc.

If you do the diet by the book then you get skinny, no other outcome!!

Oh big huggles how annoying and frustrated you must feel but please please don't let it put you off this week the weight HAS to come off if you're sticking to it. It's times like these when i can understand why a lady that did the CD asked for her CDC not to tell her how much she'd lost til she got to goal.

Opinionated

scales can be misleading in the short term due to changes in the body's fluid balance, but
TROUSERS NEVER LIE! (& you did say they'd gone in a notch)
keep going& nex week'll be a goody...will you come back & tell us?

CD Start date 9.1.07 CDss is really quite fun (I think it makes me high..shhh don't tell anyone or it'll be made illegal)... though it can get just a little dull after a while.
